Garbage in, Garbage Out

Dave Pell, NextDraft

AI trains on web pages. But AI also writes an increasing amount of web content. And a lot of that content is garbage. “New research … shows that the quality of the model’s output gradually degrades when AI trains on AI-generated data. As subsequent models produce output that is then used as training data for future models, the effect gets worse.” AI trained on AI garbage spits out AI garbage. (At least it’s recyclable garbage.)

Self-perpetuating junk!
